Overview
This elegant Victorian terrace at 29A Charles Street offers a unique blend of classic charm and modern convenience, reflecting its late 1890s origins with tasteful updates to suit contemporary living. Set freestanding to one side, the home retains authentic heritage features alongside fresh, bright interiors enhanced by engineered floorboards, delivering a welcoming and airy atmosphere that complements the sunny north-westerly rear aspect.
The property is particularly notable for its double parking, accessed via Charles Lane, a valuable and rare amenity in this connected city-fringe location. With a substantial 5-meter frontage and a level block of approximately 145 square meters, there is scope to further enhance or extend the home subject to council approval, making it an appealing prospect for those wishing to add value.
Inside, the residence features three generously sized bedrooms, two of which include a fireplace adding to the character and warmth. The main bedroom opens through French doors to an ornate iron lace balcony, inviting relaxation and connection to the street. A spacious living room, also with a fireplace and gas bayonet, flows into a bright dine-in kitchen and a contemporary bathroom, balancing practicality with style.
The north-facing courtyard extends the living space outdoors with potential for expansion. The location supports a balanced urban lifestyle with proximity to pocket parks, Forest Lodge Public School, and a vibrant café hub on Ross Street. The nearby Annandale village and The University of Sydney’s main campus, only 700 meters away, provide further amenities while easy access to city transport and nearby harbourfront parklands enrich the lifestyle offering.
